I'd imagine that Bush was really eating something like an ear of corn, but if it meant money for his pals at Haliburton, I have no doubt that the man would, in fact, eat a kitten.

Jake looks great in that photo, but where on earth in this day and age did a writer come up with a pencil shaving?

As for the 'Haps, just tell me the where and the when and I'll show up and sing. Speaking of which, if you have any promotional materials, say some extra Butt Cards, I'd be happy to hand them out in NYC at The National.

Just make the call and we'll heed it Todd!! You know I'm on board for whatever it takes to get the word out. I try to pimp the book to everyone I know as much as I can, especially now that I have the 1-pager and the 'Lost' covers in frames on my wall i get a lot of my comic friends not in the know asking about them so I try to get them to buy the books. So far it's working! I love the Bush picture, that's just classic!!
